A few years back - lets see - between my Z06, my Viper and Grand National I could have compiled a novel.

I got my bulbs and overlay a couple days ago and I am having a hard time installing the 3m adhesive that I purchased off of ebay without showing any bubbles or imperfections. Can anyone give me any techniques

I struggled with mine too..i used a blowdryer to soften up the overlay. Although it didnt come out perfect, 75% of the bubbles did go away after a few weeks.

Anybody with the Putco Jet Yellows plus yellow laminex notice their overlay darken near the center? It almost looks like these bulbs run hotter and toasted the vinyl a bit.

The bulbs are rated at the same wattage as the stock bulbs. The problem is that the film actually makes the housings hotter by retaining heat within the fog lights.

I actually had the film on for quite a long time with the stock bulbs and never had the effect. Same wattage - makes sense that there shouldn't be any difference in temperature. I was just curious if anyone else had this happen, or if its possible I could have installed them improperly (though I can't imagine how).
